don't allocate serial_ops

Now that struct serial_ops is const everywhere, we can easily turn the
instances into globals.  This patch implements this idea.

On the one hand I think this is nicer since it makes a bit more data
readonly and slightly reduces allocations.  On the other hand it
reduces readability somewhat.

If the readability is a concern to anyone I was thinking I could write
a macro that conditionally uses GCC's designated initializer
extension.

Tested by rebuilding on x86-64 Fedora 18, both natively and using the
mingw cross tools.
